Saint Brilliant High School was shrouded in a thick mist at night.
The darkness and mist blocked the common people's sight.
Even the lights couldn't shine through the mist.
Three figures carefully entered the main academic building, one at the front and two at the back.
Kana, who was behind Tanya, was holding Jen who was in a daze. Her nose was sniffing non-stop as if she was sniffing something.
At the same time, she raised the torchlight in her hand.
The high powered torchlight could only shine less than 5 meters in the thick mist.
The light and the edge of the mist was blurry and rumbling as if some monster would burst out at any moment.
In fact, Kana already picked up an unusual scent.
"Are you sure this is the place?"
Kana asked.
"My servant told me this place …"
"Speak human language!"
Kana interrupted Kana with an unpleasant tone.
If it wasn't for her friend falling into such a special state due to the expiation process, she wouldn't even need to rely on Zhan Pong to determine who the killer was.
With her friend's "abilities", she could have asked the dead souls directly.
But now, she had to rely on others …
One was unreliable.
The other one was terrifying.
"Damn it!"
Kana cursed in her heart when she thought of Kieran.
Her fear of Kieran made her instinctively reject Kieran but she also needed help. So, after multiple mental preparations, she decided to pay a corresponding price for Kieran's help.
Even for a half-fiend, the price was quite heavy.
But …
When she arrived at the old dormitory, she realized Kieran wasn't even there.
The feeling of punching the air with all her might was unbearable. It was so unbearable that she almost lost control of her bloodline's influence.
What Tanya said directly ignited the rage in her heart.
"Thou dost not understand my words …"
Fuuu!
A thin layer of flame appeared on Kana's palm.
"Trust me, follow me!"
Tanya said seriously.
She then hastened her steps.
The three of them went straight to the left stairwell from the first floor hall.
Going up the stairwell was the stairs leading to the second floor.
At the bottom of the stairs, there was an empty space.
Most of the space was filled with unwanted items.
For example, abandoned desks.
But at this time, the place was empty. There was nothing there.
However, the three of them were taken aback.
Under the illumination of the flashlight, they all clearly saw an empty space at the bottom of the stairs. There was a wooden door that was half the length of a normal door.
"Door."
Chen pointed at the door blankly.
"What next?"
Kana turned to Tanya and asked.
"My power is temporarily sealed … I can only divine this much, I don't know the rest!"
Tanya answered out of instinct but when she saw Kana clenching her fists, her words returned to normal.
"What a dabbler!"
"Senior Sister Lian Ling's …"
Hearing this, the half-demon snorted angrily.
However, before she could finish her sentence, she shut her mouth.
Even if he did not have the ability, the person in front of her still came to help them. Although she had paid him, it did not mean that she could insult him as she pleased.
Of course, it was impossible for him to take back his words now.
Her demi-demon personality had long since determined her behavior.
"Continue forward!"
Kana then replaced Tanya's position and walked in front of the group.
Tssk Gak!
A teeth-numbing noise later, the short door was pushed open.
Kana looked at the door with a strange expression.
The door was much heavier than it looked, even with her strength as a demi-demon, she had to exert almost all of her strength to open it.
Naturally, the door wasn't made of wood but metal. A special kind of metal that she couldn't identify yet.
Fuuu!
A violent wind blew from behind the door.
Kana covered her face with her hand, only showing her eyes to observe what was behind the door.
Tanya who couldn't even stand properly consciously pulled Jen to stand behind the half-fiend.
"My servant told me this place is dangerous!
We should wait for my Knight's arrival! "
Tanya said after a glance at the dark passage behind the door.
"I can't wait!"
Kana didn't care about Tanya who returned to her normal self, the moment her words subsided, she went deeper into the passage.
After multiple considerations, Kana made up her mind but she couldn't locate Kieran. She didn't have the courage to try again. It was like a moment of hot-bloodedness in front of danger, it was meaningless.
When the hot-bloodedness subsided, it would be fear.
Kana was in a similar situation.
She chose to believe in herself.
Seeing Kana walk into the passage, Chen followed. Tanya hesitated for a while but when she saw more mist gushing towards her, she walked into the passage without a second thought.
Although she was sick in the head, Tanya wasn't an idiot.
She knew where was the safest place to go.
Or …
Safe for now.
Tssk Gak!
Bang!
After the three of them entered the passageway, the heavy door closed behind them.
The heavy noise made Tanya shiver.
Kana looked heavy as well.
Even she had to use all her strength to open the door, so she shouldn't expect the wind to blow it shut.
There was only one possibility!
It was a trap!
"My servant told me the danger is getting closer!"
Tanya said with a trembling voice.
"Shut up!"
Kana shouted in a low voice.
As the door was shut, her instinct told her something was wrong but it was too late for regrets, all she could do was move forward.
The passage was no longer shrouded by the mist.
Following the strong light from the flashlight, the darkness was dispelled.
The original appearance of the passage was revealed.
It wasn't that big, only around 10 square meters, it was filled with dust. As the three of them walked, the dust flew up and under the shine of the flashlight, the specks of dust were clearly visible.
The direction of the small hall was facing the door and there was a corridor that led downwards.
The stairs were spiraling down along the stone pillars, twisting and turning. The flashlight could only shine on a corner.
The rest of the stairs were filled with darkness.
In fact, under the illumination of the lights, it seemed even more profound.
Kana took a deep breath and stepped on the stairs.
Chen followed.
Although Tanya was afraid, she had no other choice at the moment.
The three of them walked down slowly. The flashlight dispelled the darkness in front of them and the darkness behind them was swiftly devoured by the darkness. The three of them were like a glowing glass ball being swallowed into a long and narrow stomach.
The length of the corridor was far beyond their imagination.
The three of them walked for 10 minutes before reaching the bottom.
It was a room similar to the small hall above them.
However, in the middle of the room, there was …
A well.
Drip, Drip, Drip.
The sound of water droplets falling to the ground came from the well, followed by a soft singing voice.
"Dusk, return, snow willow, flow of blood …"
"People, people die, strange, inhale …"
The weird lyrics made Kana's face change drastically.
She stared at the well with widened eyes.
Even Tanya was in disbelief.
"This … Isn't this …"
The shock made Tanya unable to maintain her composure.
However, before she could finish her words, a voice suddenly rang out.
A figure was slowly floating out from the well. (To be continued)
